General Robert P. Keller, Commanding General Marine Corps Development and Education Command Marine Corps Base Quantico, Virginia 22134 Dear General Keller. During April to June 1972 we conducted a survey of the Marine Corps Base, Quantico. The purpose of the survey was to determine the nature and types of activities located at the installation. Although our work was pre- liminary in nature, we believe the information developed can serve as a basis for sharing our thougnts with you on what we believe are areas warranting further attention. We have div2ded these areas into the following (1) possible consolidation of certain activities, (2) ques- tionable need for certain activities, and (3) observations at the Marine Corps Air Station. These areas are discussed separately below. Possible consolidation of certain activities The Marine Corps Development and Education Command (Command) and the Marine Corps Air Station maintain separate motor transport facilities and photographic laboratories. Our survey ind~cated that the feasibility of consolidating tne two ruotor transport facilities, which has been examined by the Navy and Marane Corps in tne past, should be reexamined. In addi- tion, it appears that the two photographic laboratories coula be consolidated. The data gathered during our survey showed that both motor trausport facilities basically operate on a one-shift 40-hour workweek and are located approximately 1-112 miles from each other. The smilar nature of the work performed by the two facilities, their identical workweek, and their physical proximity suggest that consolidation would be advantageous. During calendar year 1971, approximately 60 percent, of the Air Station's photographic laboratory work was for general photography. Since the Command's photographic laboratory is capable of performing all types of general photo- graphic work, and more than nalf the work of the Air Station's laboratory is for general photography, we believe consolidation of the two laboratories may be practical.
